kandi X-RAY | dotfiles Summary
I've been using bash on-and-off for a long time (since Slackware Linux was distributed on 1.44MB floppy disks). In all that time, every time I've set up a new Linux or OS X machine, I've copied over my .bashrc file and my ~/bin folder to each machine manually. And I've never done a very good job of actually maintaining these files. It's been a total mess. I finally decided that I wanted to be able to execute a single command to "bootstrap" a new system to pull down all of my dotfiles and configs, as well as install all the tools I commonly use. In addition, I wanted to be able to re-execute that command at any time to synchronize anything that might have changed. Finally, I wanted to make it easy to re-integrate changes back in, so that other machines could be updated. That command is dotfiles, and this is my "dotfiles" Git repo.

QUESTION
I've got a git repo in my home directory to keep track of some dotfiles.
An unpleasant side effect of that, no matter where I am now, it is considered a part of the ~
repo, and it's easy to mistakenly add files to it etc.
It is somehow possible, that the repo in ~/.git
listens to commands (git add
, etc) ONLY if these commands are invoked directly in ~
, and otherwise it just pretends to not exist, i.e. not a repository
is thrown? (For example, if I invoke git add -A
in ~/Documents
)
ANSWER
Answered 2021-May-27 at 09:23No this is not possible.
Another way, however, can be to use a non standard .git
directory :
- rename your
.git/
directory to some other name (e.g :.git-wont-know/
, or.git-dotfiles/
) - use
git --git-dir=~/.git-wont-know ...
when you want to interact with it (link to docs)
You can set an alias or a wrapper to use this specific git dir ; you can also set GIT_DIR=~/.git-wont-know
if you want to pass this down to existing scripts.
[update] this turns off the "spot where the repo is located by looking for the .git
directory" feature.
If you want to invoke git with this setup from a subdirectory (say : from $HOME/.config/
), you may want to also specify that the worktree is your home directory :

QUESTION
I have a repository where I store all my dotfiles so it's easier to setup a new computer. The repository also contains scripts that install apps, modify my dock, set preferences, update SSH keys, etc. Since the repository updates my SSH keys and modifies my git config, I've found it easier to just download the repository as a ZIP file and then run the starting script (vs. setting up Git manually and then cloning the repository).
However, I just did this to setup a new computer and used unzip dotfiles.zip
to unzip the repository and it looked like some of my setup actually ran (setting up sym-links).
ANSWER
Answered 2021-May-03 at 15:53Most likely because the zip file was created with symlinks.
From the zip man page:
-y | --symlinks
For UNIX and VMS (V8.3 and later), store symbolic links as such in the zip archive, instead of compressing and storing the file referred to by the link. This can avoid multiple copies of files being included in the archive as zip recurses the directory trees and accesses files directly and by links.

QUESTION
I asked this question half a year ago, but I'm still having the same issue: Express Static network requests stuck on "pending"
Tl;dr: Node 14 + Webpack watch mode + Express Static causes the browser to hang every time I change a JS file. This occurs in multiple browsers, after restarting the server, and after clearing the cache.
The 2 ways to get the browser to stop hanging are:
- close and reopen the tab
- go to the homepage (http://localhost)
This issue doesn't occur in Node 12. Is there any way to get the browser to stop hanging in Node 14+?
Edit: Here's my Express code, working on a repo for repro:

QUESTION
When I check the configuration information:
...ANSWER
Answered 2021-Mar-09 at 09:00Check your environment variable for variables like:
GIT_AUTHOR_NAME
GIT_AUTHOR_EMAIL
GIT_COMMITTER_NAME
GIT_COMMITTER_EMAIL
They could have an impact on your final commit.
The final creation of a Git commit object is usually done by git-commit-tree, which uses these environment variables as its primary source of information, falling back to configuration values only if these aren’t present.
QUESTION
I managed to set up my XMonad config from the ground up by myself - but I am having difficulties setting the brightness and media control keys - and I have no experience in programming or Haskell for that matter, and thus I don't know how to read the error messages (my fault, sorry). When reverting to the state before the changes relating to my problems, I have no compilation erorrs.
So I tried copiying from other people's dotfiles but I always got compilation errors. Here I am copying Derrek Taylor's XMonad config, specifically the part relating to the problem. So I copied :
...ANSWER
Answered 2021-Feb-18 at 01:00OK so it seems I accidentally fixed my own problem, but in the most unusual way :
I went over to this site because I was searching on how to control the brightness. Literally just went to Duck Duck Go and put "how to conrtol brightness XMonad" or whatever. Installed Lux, the program to do it. For some reason after trying XBrightness it didn't register my screen or some other error message was found which is irrelevant for this discussion so I just stuck with Lux.
However while the general syntax seemed good, I've now noticed that DT's config which I gave the link to above had a different name for the XF keys. Well I just discovered while writing this was that the reason I had problems was the EZ keymap configuration - DT was using it and seems I wasn't. This realization however was much after doing step 3.
3.I took at Luke Smith's DWM fork which I used for a while before switching to XMonad. Turns out the keymap names are different and I tried them instead. Then noticed that the X in XF86AudioLowerVolume
for instance was capitalized while in something like , ((0, xF86XK_MonBrightnessUp), spawn "lux -a 10%")
from step 1 it wasn't. Since at this point Lux worked I just played the game of making sure the syntax was the same for both cases. Eventually I also figured out that Luke's dwm fork held the exact names for the keys including the lowercase so I just stuck with copiying the syntax and changing the appropriate keybindings.
A few XMonad compile error messages later it got everything working !
